Have you ever looked at a colour work project and thought "I'd love to be able to do that but don't know where to start"? Thankfully, Mieka John is here to help. Intarsia brings freedom to colour work, letting you splash bold panels of colour and shape wherever you please. With as many mini-skeins as you have ideas, and a little planning, you'll be filling your knitting world with colour! In this class Mieka will go in-depth, laying out a systematic approach to creating, bobbins, reading charts, and planning out your intarsia project while learning other handy tips and tricks along the way.
